Customer Rating:
Summary: Great product/Fast Delivery
Comment: Great job shipping. It was very fast and the product itself is great. I'd recommend this service to anyone.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Industry standard. Bug fest. Company is arrogant.
Comment: Okay, for starters, I've been writing scripts professionally for year... for Warners, Paramount, ABC, CBS, etc.. and for myself.
THE PROS:
1) It's THE industry standard. You can send Final Draft files to any studio, no problem. Everybody uses it.
2) It's easy to jump between slug lines, action, dialog, etc.
3) Keeping track of revisions is simple and works.
THE CONS:
1) Buggy as hell. In fact, its embarrassingly buggy and the company hasn't fix the bugs IN YEARS!!! Guess when you dominate an industry, why waste money on making the product work as advertised. This policy worked wonders for the American auto industry, didn't it.
2) If you have a problem with their bugs, call the company and they charge you $2 per minute to solve their software screw ups.
3) Their "collabowriter" feature. Hah. I've known countless writers over the years in Hollywood. Never met who got that to work.
4) No updates in years!
5) Oh, did I mention buggy?
6) Notes feature is super basic. Barely useable.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Solid program, but kind of buggy
Comment: Final Draft certainly has a monopoly on the screenwriting software market; it is the industry standard. However, because they don't have to compete, they also don't seem to be motivated to fix the bugs in their product. I have bought the last three versions of the product and put them to good use. I just wish they would figure out a way to fix the all too frequent crashing trouble. I have lost more than a few pages of work due to unexplained crashes that their tech support department cannot seem to explain/fix. Their pre-made TV templates seem to be the most buggy. That said, it is a really helpful program, but just make sure if you choose to use Final Draft: SAVE OFTEN.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Final Draft!
Comment: Final Draft is seriously the best screenwriting software out there. I'm a college student looking to go into the Film industry, and with the help of Final Draft, I am able to get my ideas easily into the script format!
Customer Rating:
Summary: The Product for serious script writers
Comment: No doubt, this is the best script writer's sexton. Easy format, ready to use out of the box.
